[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 424267, member: 3419"] Hi Confused, and welcome. Definitely, find another psychiatric. NOW. This one is blind, deaf and dumb. From your description, I can see a clear connection with-heredity on both sides. Your son has problems with-transitions, with-anger, and other issues. These are not going to go away. You and he are going to have to learn to work with-them and around them. In regard to discipline, I would change my definition of discipline as being "routine," and "regimine," as opposed to punishment, see the difference? Your son does not always know what he is doing is wrong. He just reacts. He is missing the piece of his brain that deals with-control and impulse control. So if your favorite TV show isn't on, for example, you will think, oh, darn, and do something else. He, on the other hand, will explode. It's like the end of the world do him. One thing would suggest is to talk through things, such as when you are going to move his cup while you are cleaning, tell him before you even begin to clean that you are going to be moving things around, making noise, and getting into his space, and he will need to be patient. Prepare him for what is to come so it doesn't blindside him. He doesn't pick up on the social cues that the rest of us get and he doesn't react appropriately, so you have to spell it out to him. IOW, if you are vacuuming, rearranging chairs, it would not come as a surprise to most of us if you got to our section of the room and started vacuuming under our legs, but with-him, he does not expect it and will explode. I hope that helps. I repeat: find another doctor. [/QUOTE]
